First course in programming?

<p>Thank you Econcalc for the ideas of sources other than community college classes.</p>

<p>Thank you Alaink. Does the first course in C++ usually assume no prior programming knowledge as BrownParent suggests an intro course would be needed first? Ah - saw your answer to this in your second post. Getting credit isn’t a concern.</p>

<p>Thank you ClassicRockerDad. I have no idea what Scheme is and everything Econcalc mentioned sounds like Greek to me, so I have some researching to do.</p>

<p>Thank you Ucbalumnus. You’ve saved me some research!</p>

<p>Thank you all. I’ll probably have some more questions after I look into all of this a bit more.</p>
